Her floor-length gown featured intricate beadwork that shimmered under the camera flashes. The semi-sheer design added a sultry edge while maintaining a refined, high-fashion appearance. Adding even more drama to the ensemble was an elegant black tulle train that flowed behind her.

The sweeping train also concealed much of Electra's sky-high heels, allowing the focus to remain on the gown's intricate craftsmanship and dramatic silhouette. Her styling embraced the dark glamour theme, complementing the outfit with sleek beauty choices that enhanced the mysterious mood of the overall look.

While her roots and upper lengths featured her signature honey-blonde shade, the ends transitioned into a rich burgundy-red ombré/dipped effect. The unexpected color contrast enhances the gothic glamour of her sheer black beaded gown.

Carmen Electra: The Name

During an interview with HOLA! the star shared details on how she officially made “Carmen Electra” her legal name in 2024, and she reflected on where it all started. “I was given the name Carmen Electra from Prince in the 1990s,” she said. As for why she waited decades later to do it, she explained, “I didn't want my parents to feel uncomfortable, but my mom passed away early. “But my dad, he lived a very long life, and after he passed, I thought, OK, it's time.”

She continued to reflect on the loss of her parents: “It's hard when you lose your parents because it's like, ‘oh my God, where do I go?’ But you know, it's life and life happens.”

Then she touched on her grandma, who lived to be 99, “My grandma used to always say ‘we're all gonna go at some point,’ and my grandma is funny. My grandma lived to be very old, though, like in her 90s, so yeah, I have a feeling I'm gonna end up inheriting that from her, and I'm not gonna want to be alive. Like, I don't know who wants to be 99, you know what I'm saying?”

When HOLA! told Electra we would all welcome her at 99, she replied, “I’ll still be dancing on tables.”
